The nation got to hear Taylor Beckham’s beautifully rich voice on TV’s popular “The Voice.” Getting on the show with her blind audition selection of “I’m Going Down,” Taylor went on to perform “Can’t Help Falling in Love” and “Russian Roulette.” She had the privilege of working with R&B singer Usher and country music singer Blake Shelton.
“I made so many new talented friends who have the same dreams and aspirations,” said Taylor when asked about the highlight of being on The Voice. “. . . coming across so many people with similar interests and goals was an absolute blast.”
Taylor’s music career began at the age of 12 when she happened upon a flyer at a local music shop where she was taking violin lessons. The flyer was announced a singing contest for ages 8-22, some professionally trained. Taylor entered. And won!
And Taylor is not the only one in her family seen on national TV! Her brother, Braxton Beckham, recently appeared on NCIS. Braxton has also appeared in commercials and on Nickelodon’s iCarly. He began his acting career when a LA agency chose him at an entertainment convention in Orlando in 2010.
How does one find time to hone such excellence and pursue such great opportunities? One key is the scheduling flexibility afforded by online education. Taylor and Braxton have been students of International Virtual Learning Academy for two years.
Taylor says, “What I love about IVLA is the lack of pressure. My schedule is always unpredictable, making it hard to do school the expected Monday – Friday. . . Effectively, I work at my own pace, and it’s great!”
So, the audience of “The Voice” may have chosen to say goodbye to Taylor, but IVLA is certainly NOT planning to say goodbye anytime soon! Serving families with educational options that fit their amazing and unique talented lives is what we’re all about!
